Pandora, what a gloomy scenario!
Is there a very strict no-upgrading policy? Would the CSD take a tumble if reported? Or just being ornery?
With us it's about 50-50 if you get upgraded or not, and the company is pretty strict if you as a Purser get found out for having done an unlawful upgrade.

I traveled full paying on my own airline from LAX last year (had to be back on time) and the same thing happened.
The Purser (as we call the SCD) knew me, so did most of the FA's.
The FA's told me later they had tried to get me an upgrade, but the Purser saw "no reason" for it.
If I had traveled on a staff ticket I would have been in business class automatically due my rank and number of years with the comp, and the Purser in question knew this.
Some people just like to be rotten to others; your English saying "what goes 'round comes 'round" always comforts me in these situations.

atco-matic you better hope that the CC in question hasn't read you "call bell" thread here!
